| Abstract: | The Doris Duke Native American Oral History Project was initiated in 1967 across seven different universities. At the University of Arizona, the project was conducted through the Arizona State Museum and coordinated by Bernard “Bunny” Fontana, an anthropologist who was the museum’s Director of Ethnology at the time. The project resulted in the collection of 615 interviews, representing 33 different tribal groups. The bulk of the collection is from Apache, Navajo, Pima, Tohono O'Odham, and Yaqui consultants. Other tribes from Arizona and Mexico are also represented: including the Mohave, Hopi, Seri, Tarahumara, and Yavapai. The interviews discuss personal and family histories, along with topics such as social culture, education, folklore, health and health care, history, language, and religion. Interviews with Acoma, Apache, Chiricahua, Chemehuevi, Chontal, Dakota, Inuit, Havasupai, Hualapai, Juaneño, Maricopa, Mexican, Mormon, Muslim, Mohave, Navajo, Pima, Quechua, San Juan, Santa Clara, Seri, Spanish-American, Tarahumara, Tewa, Tohono O'Odham, Tiwa, Western Apache, Yaqui, Yavapai, and Yuman interviewees. In addition to audio recordings and the associated transcripts, this collection includes project overviews, financial records, correspondence, project references and publications, documentation related to cataloging and access, research proposals, and materials related to the project at the other six universities. | ||
